Can't lay traps here no more.
Duncan:
Well, I guess taking shit that don't belong to you runs in the family, you know.

Winter's Bone - Struggles of Loyalty and Shame
Ree:
What I really can’t stand is how I feel so ashamed--for Dad.
Teardrop:
Well, he loved y’all. That’s where he went weak. Lots of us can be tough, plenty tough enough, and do it for a long stretch, too.
Ree:
But snitching.
Teardrop:
For lots’n lots of years he wasn’t. He wasn’t, he wasn’t, and then one day he was.
Ree:
You always have scared me.
Teardrop:
That’s cause you’re smart.

Winter's Bone - Family Loyalty and Responsibility in Crisis
Teardrop:
What Jessup done was against our ways, he knew it. I know it, and I ain’t raised no stink at all about whatever became of him. But she ain’t my brother. She’s about all the close family I got left, so I’ll be collecting her now and carrying her on out of here to home. That suit you, Thump?
Thump Milton:
You’re gonna stand for her, are you?
Teardrop:
If she does wrong, you can put it on me.
Thump Milton:
She’s now yours to answer for.
Teardrop:
This is a girl who ain’t gonna tell nobody nothing.

Winter's Bone - The Complexity of Knowledge and Responsibility
Teardrop:
You ought not do that. Don’t go running after Jessup. Show or don’t show that choice is up to the one going to jail, not you.
Ree:
You know where he’s at, don’t you?
Teardrop:
Where a man’s at ain’t necessarily for you to know neither.
Ree:
But you do...
Teardrop:
I ain’t seen him.
Ree:
Could be running around with Little Arthur and them, you think?
Teardrop:
Don’t you ever go down around Little Arthur’s asking them people about shit they ain’t offering to talk about. That’s a real good way to end up et by hogs, or wishing you was.
Ree:
We’re all related ain’t we?
Teardrop:
Our relations get watered kinda thin between here and Little Arthur’s.
Victoria:
You know all those people, Teardrop. You could ask.
Teardrop:
Shut up.
Victoria:
None of them’s gonna be in a great big hurry to tangle with you.
Teardrop:
I said shut up once already with my mouth.
Ree:
Jesus, Dad’s your only brother.
Teardrop:
You think I forgot that? Hmm? Jessup and me run together for coming on forty years but I don’t know where he’s at, and I ain’t going to go around asking after him neither.

From Dusk Till Dawn - Frustrations of a Difficult Day
Pete Bottoms:
Whatsamatter?
Earl McGraw: [''sighs'']
Ah, it's just been a shit-ass day, every inch of it hot and miserable. First off, Nadine at the Blue Chip got some sorta sick, so that mongoloid boy of hers was working the grill. That fucking idiot don't know rat shit from Rice Krispies. I ate breakfast at nine, was puking up pigs in a blanket like a sick dog by 10:30.
Pete:
Isn't there a law or something against retards serving food to the public?
McGraw:
Well, if there ain't there sure ought to be. Who knows what goes on inside mongoloid's mind?
Pete:
You could sue the shit out of her, you know. That kid belongs under a circus tent, not flipping burgers. You could own that fucking place.
McGraw:
What the hell would I do with that grease pit? Besides, Nadine's got enough of a cross to bear just taking care of that potato head.

Everest - Climbing Everest: Beauty, Competition, and Preparation
Anatoli Boukreev:
We don't need competition between people. There is competition between every person and this mountain. The last word always belongs to the mountain.
Doug Hansen:
I'm climbing Mount Everest... because I can... because to be able to climb that high and see that kind of beauty that nobody ever sees, it'd be a crime not to.
Helen Wilton:
That's the cooking tent, and over there is the toilet. It's a little bit drafty, but just remember that when the wind gets up here, you've got the same view that George Everest did.
Caroline MacKenzie:
From a medical standpoint getting you to the top of Everest is really about oxygen. And the lack of it. To give you the best chance of summiting you need to prepare your bodies for the thin air up there.
